According to the Chinese astrology, 2017 is the year of the Rooster. Not the crazy rooster of Disney’s ‘Oceania’, of course, but an awake and energetic symbol of the Good Fortune and Vitality. As for environment, 2017 will be Year of Sustainable Tourism; the assembly of the United Nations (UN) has ratified that such appointment is of utmost importance “for the development, in promoting the issue among as many people as possible, to spread awareness of the great heritage of various civilizations and in bringing about a better appreciation of the inherent values of different cultures, thereby helping to strengthen peace in the world.” Tourism is included as a target of three of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG): • SDG 8: Promote sustainable economic growth, inclusive and sustainable, full and productive employment and decent work for all • SDG12: Ensuring sustainable consumption and production patterns • SDG 14: Safeguarding the oceans, seas and marine resources for their sustainable development. Hope for the best.
